    Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

  • Griffo2018
    RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia No package has come today for my hub replacement. No text by who bringing it today as promised by VM . I am waiting still going in to the 10th day of no service from VM. Any update ?

    Virgin Media should change their name to Virgin Media Outage

    @virginmedia Yes, apparently you have an engineer working on it. If hoping the 20 hour estimated fix time is overly pessimistic!

  • ranaraptor
    Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia Do you have a date/time? What is the tech issue? I’m trying to run a business remotely, and Virgin is severely letting me down unfortunately. #virginoutage #virginmediadown

    @virginmedia do you have website issues? Chat function not responding.

    @virginmedia @Jaym7t5 Mine has just gone down again, 16:35

    Marta (@itsmartamoya) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I have had replies from a bot but impossible to speak to the agent. I will put a formal complaint if I don’t hear from an agent.

    .@virginmedia - well done. Definitely the worst and most customer hostile new login system to my unwanted "Virgin Media O2 ID". So badly designed your email points to an invalid URL of to manage this insanity. Who approved or tested this? Total fail.

  • Phil_Swallow
    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    @redheadlass1402 @virginmedia We’ve got the business service but it’s no better. They don’t seem to have any proactive monitoring or fault prevention and pretty much don’t care. They have a 3 hour service level that passed 12 hours ago, totally useless bunch of money-grabbers

  • aaronuart
    R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England

    My connection has been crap for months and the one time it’s fine, everyone else is down #virginmedia

    You still have not fixed the internet at Sw4 @virginmedia ???? What do you reckon your subscribers think of you? Good or bad ???

  • marksonofjohn
    marksonofjohn (@marksonofjohn) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Hi No broadband service in CB113HG Can you please tell me what the issue is.

  • safctinders
    Tinders (@safctinders) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia Abysmal service. Pay a premium for this stuff and nothing but aggro; TV freezes, ages to boot up… been sat here 20 minutes and still “starting up”. **** show.

  • ranaraptor
    Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s still not working!! I have this message from your site, “There's a broadband issue in SW11 XXX. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. You've registered that an area fault causing a loss of broadband service is affecting you.”

  • jameslee_1985

    Apologies for the stream interruption last night folks- @virginmedia my ISP is dealing with a large service outage. Hopefully back up tonight!

  • Avoiceonly2

    @virginmedia @Jaym7t5 My system is down since about 4pm

  • ameehan71
    Alex (@ameehan71) reported from Bromley, England

    @_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.

  • willbassoumba
    William (@willbassoumba) reported from Camberwell, England

    Virgin media is down and I actually have to talk to my family… yuck.

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

    @virginmedia It is a problem in my area. My postcode is Ls11 7hg. It is simply not good enough to now have to wait until at least 5pm for internet and television

  • finalstand79
    just me (@finalstand79) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia are shocking, offered me a contract with Netflix, didn't get it , made a complaint , did nothing other than acknowledged i made a complaint and my signal is always shocking. Warned so many people about them

  • lottalottebotte
    Little Lotte (@lottalottebotte) reported

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia Im with talk talk, but ive never had a problem to date.

  • pirate1100
    Pirate (@pirate1100) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia @virginmedia are terrible, I stopped the television & phone package years ago because of bad customer service. I only have the broadband now & although the broadband is really good the price is extortionate if you don’t keep signing up to a contract, so I’ll be cancelling that.

  • Benleo
    Ben Leo (@Benleo) reported

    Congrats to @virginmedia for being perhaps the WORST company I’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing with in Britain. Three engineer visits, five plus calls to Indian call centres, and still you can’t activate the TV contract you upsold me when I simply called to get my connection back. Awful, awful business model.

  • Moonmanthrunner
    Moonman (@Moonmanthrunner) reported

    @virginmedia 4th day of no tv and none of the projected fix dates or times met. Compensation if and when fixed?

  • aldismaldi
    𝐀𝐥𝐝𝐢 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐝𝐢🗨 (@aldismaldi) reported

    @virginmedia @Benleo Said they'd send a new box due to fault. Never arrived. Couldn't find a trace of the call! Then said expect an engineer call that never happened. Don't take out contracts with them!!

  • MrsCClarkey
    Carrie Clarke (@MrsCClarkey) reported

    Come on @virginmedia my elderly mother has been without TV since 14th May. Your outage updates are wrong every day. No way of talking to a human. You need to do better!!!!

  • georgehomiltonx
    George Homilton (@georgehomiltonx) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia After multiple calls to their call centres in recent months I have come to the conclusion that their agents run a competition to see who can get a customer the angriest and an award is given at the end of the month.

    Jordan (@JordanPsych_) reported

    @virginmedia why am I still getting issues with your horrid internet? been almost 3 weeks and still no fix yet you're 'aware of the issues'
